Gong Gong's Retainers
Yunmeng Marsh, Hidden Dragon Island.
At this moment, Yinglong transformed back into its original form, which was several meters in size, and frolicked in the lake near the island.
It was rare to see the reclusive Yinglong reveal such a childlike side, and Xuansu Shi couldn't help but laugh from a distance.
The one currently playing with Yinglong is one of Li Boyang's two attendants— Yinjiao.
All that could be seen was Yinjiao holding up that enormous silver gourd.
It continuously spewed out streams of Sword Qi from the gourd, stirring up ripples on the water.
Yinglong, however, kept dodging and turning, completely ignoring the Sword Qi.
This is a typical day in the life of Yinglong and Yinjiao.
They are the only two beings of the same kind with similar minds in the entire Yunmeng Marsh.
Their ill-fated relationship can be traced back to five years ago, when Yinglong was just born.
She was already unhappy about being treated as Jinjiao's younger sister.
After Yinglong was born, Yinjiao naturally regarded herself as his older sister and then took the little dragon everywhere to cause trouble.
Fortunately, Yinglong was not as unruly as Yinjiao, and with the careful guidance of Xuansu Shi, he was able to succeed.
He behaved very appropriately, rarely overstepping his bounds or committing any offensive acts.
[Is he the reason you gave up your identity, your mission, and willingly became imprisoned on this deserted island?]
Just as Xuansu Shi was looking at Yinglong and Yinjiao with a smile on her face, a slightly cold voice suddenly rang out from the depths of her heart.
In an instant, Xuansu Shi's smile froze on her face.
Unfortunately, Xuansu Shi didn't have much time to think before the voice rang out again.
[If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, it would be truly hard to imagine that the once-famous Wind-Wielding Thunder God would end up like this.]
[She willingly degenerated into a prisoner of the Celestial Person, and even bore offspring for a mere mortal.]
When she realized that the owner of the voice did not know about the [Red Eye Cauldron], Xuansu Shi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as it wasn't for the [Red Eye Cauldron], Xuansu Shi completely disregarded the anger and sarcasm revealed in the other party's words.
[Fuyou, I don't think we're very familiar with each other, are we?]
[You just need to manage your own subordinates; my affairs are none of your business.]
Her voice was equally cold as she retorted, but Xuansu Shi's gaze never left Yinglong and Yinjiao.
She wasn't sure if it was just her Xuansu Shi, but she felt that Yinglong and Yinjiao's movements seemed to have slowed down a bit, and their concentration wasn't as high as it had been at the beginning.
There is indeed no hierarchy between us.
[You are a subject of Yu Guo, and I am a subordinate of Kang Hui.]
[But Yu Guo and Kang Hui were both Gong Gong, and you and I are both subordinate deities of Gong Gong.]
Now that Yu Guo is missing and Kang Hui is dead, we must cooperate.
Upon hearing this, Xuansu Shi merely smiled coldly.
[Cooperation? I think it's more like exploitation!]
[You want me to keep an eye on the movements of the Heaven-Eroding Lord and those precious jades?]
[Could they even seize the precious jade that can grant wishes?]
How many precious stones have you collected so far?
"With so Duobao, surely you can achieve your plans?"
Upon hearing this, Fuyou's voice immediately fell silent.
Because no one could have imagined that, despite being trapped on this isolated island, Xuansu Shi was still so sensitive and aware of the movements of the outside world.
How did you find out about the Soul Jade of the Guhuo Bird?
[It's highly unlikely that the Celestial Person and the Heaven-Eroding Lord would give you such top-secret information.]
The curve of her lips widened further. Xuansu Shi didn't say much, but simply shook the newspaper in her hand.
Sometimes, a simple clue is all it takes to easily deduce the truth.
Besides, I'm all too familiar with your methods.
[We know each other so well that even from the slightest clues, I can guess what you're doing.]
At this point, Xuansu Shi couldn't resist making a sarcastic remark.
[Don't forget, I am the Imperial Prohibition Envoy has been able to lie low for a thousand years!]
Isn't that exactly why you've come to me now?
Xuan Su, who is known to the outside world as the "Wind-Wielding Thunder God" and secretly holds the position of "Imperial Prohibition Envoy Xuansu Shi," is far from being as docile as she appears.
The docility shown by Xuansu Shi was relative to Li Boyang.
Facing unfathomable Celestial Person whose strength far surpasses their own,
Any god with intelligence would behave as docile as Xuansu Shi.
Such a keen analysis, based solely on subtle clues in the newspapers, has revealed the actions of the Fuyou gods.
It was simply an instinct cultivated by the Xuansu Shi over the past thousand years; she didn't even actively search for relevant information.
It can only be said that the Mountain Folk's activities now extend far beyond the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
Wherever there are people, such as the Sea of Trees, Great Xia, East Sea, Huai River, Northern Dark Sea, and Kunlun, there are traces of the activity of the Mountain Folk.
Through the special medium of [Rune Newspaper], the Mountain Folk compiled the information they had obtained.
To be honest, if there had been newspapers like this before, allowing people to "know everything happening in the world without leaving home," it would have been wonderful.
Xuansu Shi wouldn't have waited until the very last moment to successfully pass on the message that "Wu Yi is going to take action against Yu Guo".
Those Soul Jade were left behind by the Guhuo Bird after its death, and they contain the Divine Ability of the Witch of the Huai River from a thousand years ago.
[Among these, the Soul Jade transformed from the Heavenly Emperor's daughter and the Night-Wandering Woman after their deaths are the most powerful.]
[If we want to achieve our plan, those two Soul Jade are indispensable.]
Upon hearing Fuyou's words, Xuansu Shi immediately interrupted with a cold laugh.
[It's your plan, it has nothing to do with me.]
I'm not interested in what you want to do, so don't come looking for me.
[This time, I'll let you off the hook because you're a subordinate of Gong Gong.]
[But if you come looking for me again next time, don't blame me for telling the Celestial Person everything I know.]
After a slight pause, Xuansu Shi's tone was filled with seriousness.
[You know, I'm capable of doing something like this now.]
Fuyou could hear the seriousness in Xuansu Shi's words, and he knew that the other party was truly capable of doing such a thing.
Otherwise, Fuyou wouldn't have chosen to contact Xuansu Shi at the last minute.
I never imagined that Celestial Person.
[In just a few short years, he had subdued the once resolute and exceptionally talented "Imperial Prohibition Envoy."]
Zi Guang inadvertently glanced at Yinglong and Yinjiao, who were still playing and frolicking.
Without the slightest hesitation, Xuansu Shi decisively reached for her own heart.
Like a phantom, Xuansu Shi removed a golden scale from her heart with almost no resistance, and then crushed it in an instant.
[Provocation won't Gong Gong on me; my loyalty has always been to Yu Guo, not to Gonggong.]
